ABOUT

The name of “J&NINA” was named after the founders Mr. Ze-Kang, Dai and Ms. Pesdin (Pei-Ling), Kuo’s children – James and Nina. J&NINA was established in 1999 under the parent company of “Textile International Development Co., Ltd,” aiming to provide the high-end quality of women’ fashion. In 2004, J&NINA successfully registered in Paris, France. In the same year, J&NINA held a press conference in Shenzhen, China, where the headquarters was established, and expanded its market to Taiwan, China and Hong Kong.

The parent company – Textile International Development Co. Ltd was founded in 1989. At the starting phase, the company focused on importing formal menswear and local knitwear. In addition, it also took orders, designed and produced clothes made with knit fabrics. Within few years, the group expanded its market into womenswear and children’s wear. With the expansion of the business volume, the brand transformed itself into the full design and produced womenswear in 1996 and was outsourced to design and produce by most of the famous knitwear brand at that time. Due to its selected quality, fashion design, and the original technique of knitting, “J&NINA” has been honored as “The Godfather of knitwear in Taiwan” by local media. Therefore, in 1999, the development history of J&NINA brought them into the next chapter in the high-end fashion industry.

BRAND DESIGNER

PESDINE KUO

"I pay attention to the clothes, like the house for our bodies ; freely showing the
chic appearance of women in the city"

BRAND CONCEPT

Wearing in her eyes is a kind of strength and an attitude. A brand style represents the soul and the extension of the designer. PESDINE KUO, is an easy-going and sincere lady with a free spirit. Therefore, just like her character, the concept of J&NINA is comfortable, simple but not boring, interesting but not exaggerating. The stylish and humorous design details present a high sense of modernity of women, which has always been her interpretation of J&NINA brand style.

REVERENCE FOR CLOTHING

As long as the raw materials used on our clothing, they are collected from animals and plants. Thus, we are thankful for nature. After obtaining raw materials, to make a dress in full accomplishment comes from the efforts of many craftsmen. Thus, we should also show our respect to their ingenuity. To maintain high-end luxury goods, we should always keep the grateful attitude not because of its costliness or the international reputation of its brand!

LOVE IS THE POWER OF ALL CREATIVITY

"Pearl starts from a grain of sand, and so does love!"
There is the power of love to discover, express, and deliver beauty at every moment. The inheritance based on the love of fashion just presents the unique charm of J&NINA. Fashion conveys not only the form and appearance of wearing, but also an attitude of love, a love for life and an understanding of life, and the expectation for life.
